Theoretical Study of fractal shape material of negative refractive index

Abstract EN

Advanced materials are artificial structure materials that exhibit properties not found in nature.

Material that has a negative refractive index (left-handed materials) is found to get a lot of interest in the literatures.

Controlling the geometry of classical material may lead to have a negative refractive index in a certain frequency range.

In this paper, we utilized from fractal geometry in our design.

A Sierpinski Carpet fractal model is proposed.

Calculations show that this model has a negative refractive index in the frequency range 7.5 GHz – 16.5 GHz.

Wide band behavior of this model refers to its fractal shape
